| I like Departure, so I don't mind it sticking around lol, and It actually fits the Greed Island arc pretty well imo. |
| The opening is still ugly, can't believe this corny song is here to stay. |
| Didn't DBZ have the same opening throughout? |
| Toyobu! |
| Awesome OP. I don't really dislike this song, so I don't get the hate, but I don't get the shonen trend anime on making their OPs so spoilerish. Hopefully next ep they will slow the pace a part of me doesn't want this arc to end too quickly. FrostToaster said: Didn't DBZ have the same opening throughout? If you mean the Kai version then yeah it had the same OP for like 90+ eps and like HxH changed some scenes around depending on what arc we were on. |

| Love it! nice episode and the best ED so far :D But shame the op haven't changed Compared to GI awesome OP from 99 version.. I think it will stay the same till the end of the anime |

Plus,Cha La Head Cha La is better than Departure anyway one looks at it. So is We Gotta Power: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xm0Bv8xy75g Alright so they had 2 openings, the first lasted until episode 199, and then was replaced by We Gotta Power in episode 200 and that lasted until episode 291. And I agree it kind of suits the arc. The anime/manga as a whole tries to act a bit childish (even though it can get very dark), so I think the openings are perfect. It's the endings defines the arc (imo). |
fearthebeard85 said: phnsr said: ~21 episodes to Chimera Ant arc. Lookin' forward to it. Is there any actual episode count for this or are you basing it off the original OVAs which were 22 episodes? I'm just curious is all. Based on the the OVAs, yes. That's why it's an approximation (~). I'm actually hoping they do it faster. So far, so good. |
| Greed Island!!! Been looking forward to this for some time now. My absolute favorite arc from the original HxH! I've been really pleased with the remake so far, so I know the Greed Island arc is going to be great! Getting tired of the same old OP song, but the scenes were good. Loved the ED! |
 |
| Can't wait for "Saisho wa guu..." |
| Keep moving forward |
| I wonder how much they are going to censor some of the stuff that happens. |
| The OP and ED is nothing from another world but this time they fit the material. Time to destroy SAO and AW. |
 |
| A nice and refreshing change from the gloomy aura surrounding my monitor screen every time someone died in the Phantom Troupe arc! I think I'm immune to flying heads and chopped limbs now. :"( It's finally time for the fun side of HxH! Woohoo! And Biske looks much cuter than she did in the OVA! :D I feel like I'll like her much better this time. Gon and Killua were also so cute in this episode. :) Shouldn't have marathoned this-- ugh, the days are dragging by! |
| HOW DID WE GET TO THE GREED ISLAND ARC SO FAST?! OMG GUYS WE ARE SO CLOSE TO CHIMERA ANT! |

Malestel said: Vael said: Shouldn't have marathoned this-- ugh, the days are dragging by! You mean you shouldn't have marathoned it yet? :) Marathon is the best way to watch anime imo Also everything from books to series. Much more consistent and leaves a deeper impression if it was good. Marathoning this from ep 6-58 was just amazing. Also marathoning OP 1-380. Those were the days (when I had free time :/) Well, if you marathon an ongoing series, there's this anguish when you finally reach the most recent episode, since the wait for the next one changes from 0 to 7 days, which you won't feel when you've been watching it weekly. |
| The big brown fox jumps over the lazy dog |
| - New OP is great. I don't even care they kept Departure. - New ED is also great. Maybe not as awesome as Hunting For Your Dreams but I still liked it. - Liked the episode pace and how they started the arc. I'm really confident MH will do a good job with G.I. |
FrostToaster said: Avato-chan said: That will probably take 4 months or more. - Captain BuzzkillHOW DID WE GET TO THE GREED ISLAND ARC SO FAST?! OMG GUYS WE ARE SO CLOSE TO CHIMERA ANT! GI is like 20-30 episodes long so not that long o.o |

mrsticky005 said: BTW did anyone else find Neon Nostrade's reaction to Eliza's mourning interesting? Remember this is the same girl who didn't give a flip about Dalzollene's death. bodyguard deaths probably weren't all that rare. and she probably never cared since she never noticed anybody else around her ever seeming to care much. (not as much as eliza anyway. and you see neon interacting with her and the other girl more than with any of her bodyguards.) |
| The opening images were awesome. I thought the Greed Island arc was fairly mixed overall (but that could be due to the way the OVAs were made) but I did enjoy some aspects. |
 |
| ^ Nostrade girl (forgot her name) did got her powers stolen by Chrollo however let's think about WHY Kurapika chose the Nostrade family among others at the start of York New arc. The girl has a reputation of a body collector. Being a collector, she should have connections to other individuals who have the same interests as her. Now, besides killing off Spiders, what is Kurapika's motive? |

| sooo, I watched these last 60 episodes too fast! (well 59, according to this article. no talk of ep 60 :P) Soo I gotta say, Im happy Killua finally developed his electricity Nen technique! I think its pretty awesome. It makes me mad when they sometimes bring Killua down to Gon's slightly inexperienced level, I mean Killua has been raised as an assassin ever since he was born. Not only that but he could obviously use Nen subconsciously with that claw thing he could do with his hands. He used to be OP (as in overpowered) but a good OP and I liked him a lot for that but then sometimes they brought him down to the first protagonist's level, nothing against gon at all. s hopefully killua's experience will start to prevail again. One thing Im not so happy about is we're not gonna se Kurapika for a long time :( according to what I read he's not even really in the next two arcs. Right when I think they developed his character into a very intriguing and awesome person. He's so different than typical shounen characters looking for revenge, he actually has motivation and doesnt end up feeling all bad afterwards;for a good reason. I thought that fight against Uru was awesome! Kurapika really looked like a badass. so why the hell doesnt togashi write him into the next two arcs????? Well, I guess Im gonna have to watch the 1999 OVA's from here or start reading the manga, I dont think I can wait. btw love the yu yu hakusho opening theme im glad someone posted it :) and i must admit departure took awhile to get used to. |

What you got to understand is Nen is a big factor to consider in a fight. Killua, while being extremely gifted in earlier episodes is still a newbie, as is Gon, in regards to Nen. It was explained by Wing in the Heaven's Arena arc that a simple Nen 'push' on someone who doesn't have Ten can get killed (body destroyed) - even in Killua's caliber. The difference between Gon and Killua in regards to Nen is that Gon have instinctual learning (Zetsu while stalking Hisoka in the 4th Hunter exam phase) while Killua is more on experience/training (claw hands, electricity) that are complementary to his fighting style (one-shot kill). This is the trouble with marathoning episodes without taking the time to soak in what the episodes are telling you about the universe and the characters in it. You end up having misconceptions on factors that should have been obvious if you're not rushing it. I won't even touch upon Kurapika if the reason you're missing him so soon is because he's "badass" without taking into account what happened on the airship, the prophecies and Pakunoda's sacrifice. |

NHS-KEMISH said: I'm not sure why the mummy guy didn't appear, or can't remember a reason (he appears in later arcs iirc, but he didn't appear in the OP because he doesn't appear in the arc). About the girl, it's actually a guy, though take a look at him, doesn't he look familiar? Here:Anyone notices that in the OP part of the spider one of the members (The one that looks like a mummy) doesn't appear...and at the very back instead is a girl.. Im confused about this :/ can anyone help me?  If you can't recognize him then wait for him to appear. But to not spoil anything, all I can say is that he's a new member, replacing Hisoka. |

| This doesn't really seem all that interesting to me, but I guess we'll see how it goes. |

| 1) so excited for this arc, i love the awesome concepts/situations hxh comes up with 2) so excited for killua and gon to develop, i love training segments 3) so excited and loling that the troupe is back this quick, randomly stole a 50 bill game and plugged themselves + their lives into it. love them. 4) poor kurapika, what a toll this has taken on him. i love how they addressed the toll the revenge has taken on him, and dont glorify his sacrifice in order to obtain insane powers. i enjoyed this more than last episode's conclusion of the yorkshin arc. is that weird? i like new concepts and stuff, i was feeling weary by the end of the previous arc. |
| Killua's new power looks awesome!! it also kinda look like Sasuke's Chidori and Kakashi's Raikiri!! |
 |
| A G.G.G.Girl in the OP and ED! ewww... I kid of course. Enjoyed the last arc and really looking forward to this one. |
| Hell Yeah!! Its special ability time! Plus an awesome new opening. This arc looks like it'll be sweet! I'm glad they're keeping the same song. Its a good song and it fits the series very well like "We Are!" from One Piece. I hope they keep it for a long time. I hope Gon learns a defensive ability. that whole aura body shield that can make you bullet proof (the kind Uvo used) is an Enhancer ability right? Or is that just an enhanced form of Ten? I just realized something... When the Hell is Gon gonna buy his Hunter License back?? If he doesn't meet the deadline it'll be sold!! That makes me nervous... |

| It's basic nen, so mostly ten and ren depending on the character. |

| Dammit, show! Will you never change you OP theme ever? It was already a bit dull the first time I heard it; by now it's a freaking earworm! ( ㅍ`へ 'ㅍ )/fffffff *sigh* oh well. At least the OP animation has completely changed, and the ED's quite nice. New arc looks to be a barrel of immature giggles. <3 vidya gaems |
 |
| I'll go ahead and tell you the OP will never change, except for some lyrics. |
